Ubuntu Proxy Server

apache http client download and proxy server

An old computer these days is no longer a completely useless system. In fact, even though I might upgrade my main computer every couple of years, I usually take ten to fifteen years before I completely remove it from my home network and send it to that great LAN in the sky!

Here are ten twelve uses that I have discovered for that more “experienced” computer system!

And once you have read through the article and decided which exciting project you want to do, make sure you let us know by voting in the poll!

Firewall/Router

This was the very first use I had for an older computer. I grabbed an old 286, installed a couple of network cards, and the latest version of FREESCO and suddenly every computer in my house had Internet access without having to keep my main system running or without having to buy an expensive (at the time) dedicated router/firewall device.

Not to mention that I learned a ton about Linux through this process!

Here is a list of some Linux distributions and tools that you could use to create a firewall/router for your home:

* FREESCO

* IPCOP

* Smoothwall

* Firestarter

* Coyote Linux Personal Firewall

* Shorewall/Shoreline

* Mason

* Vyatta

* floppyfw

* FireHOL

* Guarddog

* Turtle

* m0n0wall

* Endian

* pfSense

* LutelWall

* Zorp

* ClarkConnect

* Devil Linux

* Sinux

* Kaladix

* SafeSquid

File Server

If you’ve been on Daily Cup of Tech before, you will know my love for FreeNAS. With an old computer and a couple of hours effort, you can have a nifty little file server available on your network.

There are other ways that you can create a file server other than FreeNAS. Here are some that I found:

* FreeNAS

* Samba

* iFolder

* NASLite

* Openfiler

* CryptoBox

Print Server

My wife and I share a printer that used to be hosted on her computer. It was a real pain when her computer would go into sleep mode or she would shut it off and I would lose my ability to print. I was able to turn an old computer into a print server that is always running and I can now print regardless of the status of my wife’s computer.

Nicholas Fong has a great tutorial on setting this up. 
Fax Gateway

Yes, I know. Faxing is so 1985. But, a lot of people and companies still rely on this technology to keep their business running. With a bit of effort and some old computer hardware, you can set up a HylaFAX server to manage and control all of your incoming and outgoing faxes. Plus, you could save a few trees because you are using less paper. 
Web/FTP Server

With the advent of LAMP server installations, it is relatively trivial for someone to create a web server. This will give you the ability to create your own websites in house before you distribute them to the world or you can simply use it as an intranet site to keep your busy family in touch.

Here are a few tutorials on setting up a web server:

* Setting up a local web server in Debian Linux

* The Apache Web Server

* Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) LAMP Server Setup

* Quick Linux Server

SSH/SCP Server

SSH and SCP provide you with a lot of very powerful abilities so that you can remotely access your network and copy files securely. One of the best ways is to set up a FreeNAS box, enable SSH and then connect to it using an SCP client such as WinSCP to transfer files or PuTTY for accessing your network. 
Anti-Spam Server

We all hate spam. So, use your old computer to get rid of it! By using SpamAssassin on a Linux box, you can quickly stem the flood of incoming spam. I have also found a really good tutorial on the subject (Sorry, I had to use the Google cache.). 
Proxy Server

Most users have the same webpages that they visit on a regular basis. Each time that they go to these websites, they need to go and download all of the files again. While this is not a terribly big issue if you have lots of bandwidth and it is not being used very much, it can become an issue if your are a high bandwidth user.

You can also use it to filter out undesirable content.

Here are a few tutorials on setting up a proxy server:

* Setup a transparent proxy with Squid in three easy steps

* Minimal Linux Proxy

* 3Proxy

Thin Client

I’ve always thought that the next time I decide to upgrade all of the computers for my entire family at home, rather than upgrading each system, buy a rather beefy server with lots of RAM and then create virtual computers for everyone. Then, I could use their original hardware and ThinStation to give them access to their new virtual computer!

You may also want to check out AnywhereTS to help with the setup. 
Voice Mail Server

For me, voice mail has always been so passive. It just kinda waits in one place until I remember to check it (which could be days later). A voice mail server would be a great tool!

One great advantage would be the ability to have my voice mail e-mailed to me. Another would be the ability to check it from my computer. The VOCP System provides me with all of those abilities and more! 
Media Server

More people are going away from their CD and DVD players and heading for MP3 and AVI files. A media server is a great way to use that old box.

Here are some resources to get you rockin’!

Web Proxy – Do They Really Work and Can They Really Make Anyone Anonymous on the Internet

A web proxy is possibly the most common kind of proxy server you’ll see online. The way web proxies function is very similar to normal proxy servers but there are still some major issues you should be aware of. Using a web proxy to be anonymous is a big mistake, but you will find that there are some situations where these proxies will work fine. A lack of anonymity and the inability to display a wide variety of media on websites are the two biggest issues with these kinds of proxies. If you are looking for a way to be anonymous while on the internet, then a web proxy is not what you need. The reasons for this are easy to see once you understand how a web proxy works and what limitations they suffer from.

Web proxy servers are best suited to casual and unimportant internet use. This generally means browsing websites like facebook or myspace from work or school. It is common for a web proxy to be called a facebook proxy because most people use them to browse facebook and similar sites with. What you call a web proxy isn’t important, always remember that a web proxy is the most basic of proxy servers and you should limit the kind of activity you use them for. The reason for this is that they offer you very limited anonymity and also are unable to display many different kinds of media on websites. Common problems with these proxies are that of javascript and being unable to load and play video content. There are also limits on just how anonymous you are with a web proxy. Web masters can easily see that you are using a proxy server and for this reason it is strongly recommended that if you want to be anonymous on the internet you should use an elite proxy server.

Elite proxy servers, unlike a web proxy, do make it possible for you to be completely anonymous and undetectable online. The IP they give you is undetectable as a proxy server IP and this makes it impossible for websites to detect that you are using a proxy server. They also do not suffer from the same kinds of limitations that web proxy servers do. Videos will play without a problem, javascript has no problem at all and all the kinds of website features and functions you have grown accustomed to will work fine with an elite proxy. Using this kind of proxy server to surf the internet with is no different than using your own home computer.

If you are unsure as to whether or not you should use a web proxy or elite proxy, then only use a web proxy for the most basic and casual of internet use. This would be limited to reading news, looking at pictures online and very other general basic internet usage. For anyone who wants to login to sites, watch videos online and chat with their friends, nothing beats the kind of anonymity, security and speed of an elite proxy server. There are a wide number of websites around offering proxy server lists or if you want you can choose to setup your own proxy server for absolute peace of mind.
